With 70% of Pinterest users now pinning to their wedding boards you can help future brides be inspired by your very own wedding.

As far as Pinterest is concerned, DETAILS are the most important part of your wedding day and there are some things you should not DIY.

1.Hire a professional calligrapher for those chalkboard signs (www.lovelettering.ca) and graphic designers for invitations.

2. Invest in a florist and cake designer. Expect to pay up to $1000 plus.

3. Hire a professional decorator or stylist to help add to those details and to ensure they are displayed beautifully.

4. Consider unique venues, details, and colour inspiration not often seen, used or found. When a bride tells me she has a colour combination for their wedding they cannot find inspiration even on Pinterest that is a good sign you are stepping outside the box and on your way in creating a unique wedding.

5. Of course the most important thing to help make sure your wedding is “Pinterest Famous” is to hire a professional wedding photographer who has been featured in wedding magazines and blogs. With all of the details you have now invested in please remember to give time in your wedding day schedule to your professional photographer to capture those details. This means they are not taking pictures of family, guest or the funny moments that maybe happening on your day for about an hour or two. Some photographers work in teams which means you can have the two photographers split up at certain times of the day to capture family moments and details.

Here are some wedding vendors you should check to help you with your details. :)
